学习社区

The School of Social Work has designed learning communities to give students opportunities to form social and professional friendships and explore new ideas. In these groups, faculty and students explore issues affecting the communities with which they work.

 

创伤整合计划 Learning 社区

The 创伤整合计划 (TII) Learning 社区 is an informal space to come together to reflect on the impact that trauma work can have on us as individuals and to share support and resources. Meeting monthly over the course of the year, each LC will be a mix of presentation of a concept related to vicarious trauma and self care, and informal discussion among participants focused on skill implementation. 在年底, participants will have a framework for understanding vicarious trauma and a foundational skill set for managing the impact of working with trauma and trauma-impacted populations.

会议通过Zoom举行, and are co-led by Dean Teresa Schirmer, Dean Sue Coleman and Professor Kathleen Flinton.

过去事件的例子

Trauma-informed? What does this mean and why does it matter to social work practice?
This learning 社区 will start with defining the term trauma-informed as it relates to both practice and the organizations in which we work, and ask questions about this construct. 这个定义够吗?? How do we move beyond being informed about trauma into a stance of being trauma-responsive? How does this look different for us as practitioners and in our service delivery? 使用案例, we will learn how to look beyond staff training on trauma to see the details of how systems are functioning relative to experiences of trauma, and how change can happen to transform our practices to be trauma responsive.

Neuroscience and social work: translating science to practice
Have you ever wanted to learn more about our fantastic elastic brains, but are especially interested in bridging research with practice (clinical and/or macro)? Well, this is the learning 社区 for you!
